Volume 5: A New Era Chapter 199 Metaphysics
The reason why the Metaphysical Mechanical Sect is not very popular in mechanical armor technology exchange meetings, that is, in the team behind the armored team, is that its roots are not about mechanical technology.
Their various technologies are just disguised surfaces, and their core lies in metaphysics.
What is metaphysics?
Mysterious and profound, the door to all wonders.
Originally in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the research and interpretation of "Laozi" and "Zhouyi" have been passed down to the present day as some knowledge that seems to have rules but actually depends entirely on luck.
For example, you must wash your hands before drawing a card, it is best to draw a card at a certain time, and you must sincerely recite the things you want to draw when drawing a card, etc.
There is uncertainty in metaphysical things. They may not be true, but you cannot point at them and say that they are definitely false.
Xuan Nian naturally knew that his other companions were prejudiced against him, but he didn't care.
The focus of metaphysics is actually on "I think ".
No matter whether others believe it or not, I just believe it.
The whole point of Deus Ex Machina is this blind faith.
People who seek help from metaphysics are generally those who feel powerless when faced with real-life issues.
When the illness cannot be cured, one prays to God and Buddha, hoping that one day God and Buddha will bless him and he will recover without any medicine.
So metaphysics is actually similar to lottery. People who are powerless in reality seek help from external forces to violently resolve their predicament.
This has resulted in the fact that most people who buy lottery tickets are loyal believers in metaphysics.
Because winning the lottery is a real dilemma they cannot solve, they can only pray for other metaphysical powers to help them solve this problem.
This idea fits the concept of mechanical deification very well. When encountering difficulties, a god-like being can be sent down directly through mechanical means to solve all difficulties.
Deus ex machina is a skill that every member of the metaphysical mechanical sect will build.
Its specific effect is to summon special forces to help yourself when you encounter difficulties.
As for what kind of special power it is, there is uncertainty.
It is possible that you suddenly meet a master, or a disaster may occur without any signs, or you may meet a strange monster from another dimension.
It is also possible that nothing happens.
Of course, as the skill continues to improve, this skill will gradually change.
Some people, when activating their skills, suddenly gain incomparable luck and almost all their wishes come true.
When some people initiate a summon, they will directly contact certain beings in other dimensions, sign a contract with them, and reach a relatively stable contract summoning.
Xuan Nian's deus ex machina is the latter type.
I saw Xuan Nian muttering to himself, looking very mysterious.
However, if you listen carefully, you will find that Xuan Nian is announcing the names of the dishes.
The names of dishes such as steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, etc. were read out quickly in an unclear tone.
At the same time, he took out a panda ornament and took out three incense sticks and placed them in the hand of the panda ornament.
After lighting the incense, the hands are also made with many mistakes and omissions, but they form a system of their own.
Halfway through the seal, he started to make the seal with one hand, while the other hand grabbed the tablet next to him and started to draw with the electronic pen.
In less than ten seconds, a picture of Hatsune Miku smoking and taking drugs appeared on the tablet.
Everyone around was watching all this with an expression like that of an old man on the subway looking at his phone.jpg.
There are so many flaws in this ritual.
The problem was that Xuan Nian looked very pious when he performed these rituals.
The ceremony went very smoothly and was completed before Zhang Hao arrived.
As Xuan Nian placed the tablet on three incense sticks and blew on it, the preliminary ceremony was completed.
Then he took advantage of the gap, opened the passage of the cabin, and threw the tablet out like a paper airplane.
The flying tablet did not change at all and was easily crushed by the aftermath of the battle.
All the abnormalities occurred after the tablet was broken.
The broken tablet seemed to have burned out some components, and smoke began to come out from inside, and the smoke was still lingering.
And the smoke was getting more and more. The aftermath of the previous battle could easily crush the flat plate, but it couldn't blow away the smoke.
At this time, the people in the armored team had to admit that there was something to the metaphysical sect.
By the time Zhang Hao arrived, the smoke had already spread and the entire battlefield was surrounded by smoke.
And the smoke is very choking, like the smell of those stiff socks you hide under the bed burning.
Zhang Hao frowned, the sound of fighting in his ears had stopped.
The combined armor was so huge that it was now hidden in the smoke.
"This smoke is poisonous." Zhang Hao made this judgment the moment he came into contact with the smoke.
The light surrounded him and he stepped carefully into the smoke.
No matter what, he had no reason to back down.
Walking into the smoke, Zhang Hao actually lost his direction for a moment. From an outside perspective, the area covered by the smoke was not large.
At the same time, the various abilities in his body were actually of no use to the current situation at this moment.
Due to my special physique, I can't adapt to this smoke for a while.
Even the stars have no way of analyzing what the smoke is used for.
When Zhang Hao was about to analyze the true meaning of it, Ye Han's "correct choice" also came into play, persuading Zhang Hao not to do so.
At the same time, the stars also released some information. The last time this happened was when Lu Bai and Lin Xing were fighting, and the foreign information in the filthy flesh drove Lin Xing crazy.
The stars learned from their mistakes and, based on the hint of "correct choice", informed their new owner Zhang Hao not to commit suicide.
"In other words, there is some kind of alien information in the smoke that can pollute people's minds?" Zhang Hao did not take this lightly.
Instead, he chose to punch directly and explore in the smoke, which might have led to him getting into the opponent's rhythm. So the best way now was to break the deadlock with violence.
The light pierced through the smoke, releasing light and heat to the surroundings.
Then something behind the smoke flashed by.
The moment he saw that thing, Zhang Hao even felt inexplicably nauseous and wanted to vomit.
And the most important point is that with his current martial arts skills, let alone just taking a look, even with just a glance, he can quickly remember the appearance and characteristics of that thing.
But this time, Zhang Hao could only barely remember a few pieces of information.
First of all this guy looks stinky.
It’s not that Zhang Hao’s description was wrong, it just really looks smelly.
Vision is unconsciously connected to the sense of smell.
Secondly, this thing looks very hard. This time, vision connects with touch.
